SERE school - a notorious military training program designed to teach people how to survive in hostile environments as well as resist interrogation, with a little bit of sadistic hazing rituals in thrown in for good memories. Unfortunately most of it is classified but I'm sure theres plenty of tales on the internet about it.
The biggest reason I wouldn't talk about it is because it would ruin the surprises for those who are about to go through it. It's not exactly a threat to national security if the enemy knows about the demonic sensory torture chambers.
Schrader's next movie Master Gardener sounds good.
>Narvel Roth is the meticulous horticulturist of Gracewood Gardens, a beautiful estate owned by wealthy dowager Mrs. Haverhill. When she orders Roth to take on her troubled great-niece Maya as his apprentice, his life is thrown into chaos and dark secrets from his past emerge.
Anyone feel a type of way after watching First Reformed? I know it’s largely adapted from Winters Light but this felt more real and urgent with the planet imploding but no one really cares, we’re just walking into a fire and the only way for others to take notice is to make a spectacle and taking the rage out on others. I think that movie should be talked about more.
I'm not sure that's what Schrader wants people to take away from First Reformed. The ending kind of makes explicit, and Ethan Hawke states it in the beginning, that wisdom is holding 2 contradictory ideas in one's head at the same time, despair and hope. And even at his lowest he can still be saved by hope, by love, by compassion
The movie validated my annoying doomer personality but upon watching it, I've realized that you need to live with the fact that your world is going to be destroyed. But you can't let it effect your daily life, because that's no way to live.
And once again nobody watched it. 🙁
Loved Light Sleeper and Blue Collar. I think I will see Mishima next.
Mishima is awesome, enjoy
Mishima is his masterwork
With Mishima if you are not familiar with the novels, you will miss a lot of it's greatness.
Try auto focus, Kinnear is fantastically creepy
should i watch it?
yes. great script, well-served by isaac. haddish is kind of bad, but it doesn't matter much.
>tiffany haddish
I don't think so
>Doesn't like thick b***hes
Homie.
Capeshit syndrome.

How the frick did dumbasses think this was slow. We really are on a downward slide at this point
It was garbage. cat people and the Yakuza are cool though
I really liked the SERE/torture elements because I went through that training, and the poker scenes were solid as well. 8/10 for me
Elaborate on your training

He took it online.
What happens if you say something about it here without incriminating yourself

Jesus
>I went through that training
glowy outs himself kek
It's a mandatory training for aviation fields in the military. Most civilian pilots have gone through it at one point.
Also for glowies so they can learn how to torture

Meh I thought it was a step down from First Reformed

Right, but that seems harder and harder to have faith in as time goes by
I thought it was largely based off of Under the Sun of Satan but what do I know I guess
It's mainly based on Diary of a Country Priest.
